EU and the US supported the Greeks against Turks …

At a press briefing yesterday, Denktas claimed the EU and the US supported the Greeks against Turks solely because of their Muslim identity, in spite of Turkish legitimacy and in rightful practices. Warning against a possible massacre if Turkish forces withdrew from the Island, Denktas said that because Turkey was under pressure to conform to the EU criteria for accession, it had no alternative but to step back and loosten its defensive grip on Cyprus.
